Well, that patch is not for the same unresolved problem of automake.
It is the same problem here on perl, a file storing the path to another files.
Can the real path be stored in the package depotbase and changed, when it is
added to the default view, by `pkg_view add'? linkfarm are only symlinks, but
can one of those symlinks be replaced by a real file, with valid paths in the
view?
Are there some options? I don't remember them very much.
